I'm in transit today, and will be again on Monday.

@questions someone was asking me: I think I was pretty clear explaining the random lunch thing. There's a bunch of names in here I don't recognize, so proposing the random lunch was kind of a long shot hoping that some of the ones I did recognize would go along with me because they knew the plan. It didn't work out, oh well.

Sinensis I don't think your point on Austin is very good. Even if you disagree with him, for that to make him scum his position would have to be pushing a scum agenda and I don't think it does. He's not saying "scum wouldn't hammer someone becaise it would bring pressure, therefore hammering isn't scummy", he's just saying "hammering would bring a lot of pressure" - or at least that's how I interpreted it.

I also don't think "you seem too afraid of getting lynched, you must be scum" is good logic. Actually, that's terrible logic - if townies always let themselves be lunched or didn't care about it then scum would always get easy mislynches and win. Conversely, if townies never let themselves get lunched then town would always win. Getting mislynched is like the worst thing a townie can do. So don't judge ottoxlol based on whether he's trying not to get lynched, judge him based on how he's scum hunting and how he is interacting with the thread.

Also I place an fos on whoever said he was scum because he doesn't want to get lynched. I really think that's bad logic.

Planes gonna leave soon ill check in again later tonight.


You clearly shouldn't write posts when you're hungry.

Also, I never said he is scum because he is afraid. I meant to say that he should not be afraid of getting lynched as town, because if you are town and play without fear, people will often recognize it and not lynch you.

The reason I voted him was more austins case and the fact that I feel that Ottoxlol is merely trying to blend in instead of helping town.

(in case you didn't notice yet, I'm they guy you're FOSing).

That game was completely different from this. The previous game (LIII) I posted in a similar manner like this btw, I made a case on a blue who we lynched because his bad claim, we had almost zero discussion, the game ended with total scum victory, I wanted to make sure we do not lynch another blue and I saw a chance that Matt was one, so at least I tried to get everyone talking why did they voted. It didnt work out very well...
If I did not defend myself you could have said that I gave up so I must be scum. Why is it a bad thing that I try to explain my actions and my thought process so we dont start off with a mislynch?


It was about the way you defended yourself. However, judging from your following posts, it indeed rather seems to have been bad townie defense than scum defense.

You must be kidding me. How many times do I have to explain that I wanted to shut that discussion down before it takes off? Which I did, by the way, because noone was talking about it afterwards!

ShiaoPi, I know, I just saw that part and knew the response to it, so I wrote. I will go into your case later (perhaps much later). I have a somewhat bigger post on thrawn incoming, but I'm still reading some stuff to make sure I got everything in it that I want to have. 10 more mins and I'll be done.

It wasn't a question, Ottox did not want to vote yet.

ottoxlol: You say I lied, with the lie being that I said you wouldn't give your full read on snb. Yes you have given your read, but the question originally proposed to you was about where your vote was going to go, and you specifically declined answering that question. Whether or not you want to vote for snb is a very big part of what I look at when trying to determine how genuine your read on snb is.


Ottox did not decline answering the question, he said he might vote snb but wants to hear is answer first.


This one is probably the worst, completely missinterpreting Sinensis accusation, therefor I post it in the open.

So if I were to not go after other people that would somehow be better than what I've been doing? Well of course not. So how are you making the distinction that I'm trying to direct attention from myself? Are the accusations or questions I've posted scummy looking? Basically it seems like you are accusing me of "too much scumhunting" without going into detail about how the scumhunting looks suspicious.

I'm trying to disrupt communication? So I'm just supposed to sit back and let everyone talk to each other and then come in afterwards with my read without being able to ask people questions beforehand? And I think "rarely follow through" is an exaggeration. Which "nitpicks" do you have a problem with? Is your concern about the number of them or the usefulness of them?

What I want you to be more specific about is exact cases you're accusing me over. Tell me which ones you're actually talking about. You've just made some general statements about my play without actually saying which specific examples you think are scummy and why, and honestly I'm a little wary about how genuine your intentions are.


He never said to not go after other people, he never said not to ask questions. He was talking about the way you were doing those two things and that he sees your methods as disrupting instead of helpful.

I was unsure if it was just your reading comprehension that failed over and over again or if you did this on purpose. When I compare your play to Newbie Mini Mafia XXVI, then I don't see any misreading of this type there.

Interestingly enough, earlier in the thread, Sinensis posted this:

On September 28 2012 04:42 Sinensis wrote:
I wasn't implying SnB's meta is unclear and dickish. I've played many games with him and he's never been a dick to me. I was implying that being clear and undickish (that's a word I promise) is a good way to be in general. It makes communicating easier. That's all I was saying with that. Communicate clearly and undickishly and I'll be happy to give anyone my time.


Thrawn is doing the exact opposite in his beforementioned post. This could be an attempt to avoid having to properly defend against Sinensis' accusations. Also, Thrawns response seems over the top. Check how other reacted on such statements from Sinensis, they were much cooler (e.g. Austin)

I also don't like how he is suddenly attacking Sinensis when his points are valid. He does not really try to defend, instead he just attacks him here and demands Sinensis defends.

Thrawn, get in here, this is your last chance to say something about this. I expect a statement until deadline -1 hour (that's in roughly 2 hours), else I'll hammer you.

There is close to zero content within his posts (most are short anyway). The first longer post is the more or less useless list of timezones, he admitted himself that talking about it is a good way to appear contributing while not doing it actually.
Also look at the way he shifted his attention around, never called out somebody (besides the "lurkers" at the start) on his own, but piled up onto thrawn and ottox respectively as they started to get pressured by others. As the pressure subsides he pulls back as well.

So I wanted him to give out reads of his own, maybe a target of his own, instead of sheeping others and blending in with thread-sentiment. Looks like he is either not online right now or prefers to lurk. Since I want to sleep soon, I won't stick around all the time until he posts.

I cannot see any good town reasons for trying to blend into the thread and doing nothing besides piling up onto players already under fire. Looks incredibly scummy in trying to be on the "good" side of town, while seemingly "contributing" but actually just coasting along.

I know it's a bit late to propose a new lynch target but phagga reads red to me now.


Where did I pile up on thrawn? And I raised my suspicion of Ottoxlol here before austins case.

don't have much more time, need to run for train, will be online from mobile and later.

Don't be shy. If you're townie, there is nothing to fear. Just try not to clutter up the thread.

We are off to a really slow start, something that can generate usefull discussion is always welcome.

you complain about lack of activity in this game, while having been inactive as well. You also jump on another person who has done nothing until then. The post is pretty much devoid of any meaning, besides opposition to random lynches. Nothing that screams scum right now, but still worthy to take a note of.


I wrote pregame I would be inactive the first 9 hours due to sleep, which is pretty much how long I was inactive.

I frequently point out people who are not active, you can find this in any of my older games. It's a habit I have developed to make people aware that someone has been inactive for a longer time. I also like it as a reminder when scumhunting to see if the person has had several periods of long inactivity and what that could mean in the context of the game/thread.

Game is slow. Game is slow we need something to create discussion. I watch for inactives and point them out. Gets on Thrawn's case for not contributing.

In all of that, phagga isn't doing an awful lot himself. I shared his feeligns that we needed something to create discussion, but had no idea how to get that started, so I can't really fault him for those posts.

However, I don't actually see him hounding inactive players. I don't actually see him attempting to do too much.

Why would Mafia not do that? According to you, that makes them look townie, which is what they try to achieve.


If you look at it from a mafia perspective I don't think mafia would be that open in giving information out out to town, as well as, if you say it that way, wouldn't all the things you are doing is trying to achieve mafia's objective?


Of course Mafia tries to achieve their objective, I just find it dangerous to say that mafia would not do something because only townies do something/take that risk. If an action means you can look more townier, than it might be a good idea to risk it as scum, to get some towncred.


So, EVERYTHING Thrawn did is an action that supposedly makes him townier?

and that was phagga's response.

Effectively, phagga is just shutting down the chat with Bluelightz. I'm only speaking generally. I agree that thrawn isn't scummy, but I don't like your reason. I won't tell you WHY i don't like your reason. I won't explain MY reasons. I won't keep the analysis of Thrawn going at all. Just give some general statements and not offer my own specific thoughts.

I mention in the nested posts in the quote above why I think it is a bad argument. I did not intend to shut the discussion down, but realized bluelights thought that I suspected thrawn, which I did not really do at this point.

Phagga's unvote on Ottox ... doesn't do wonders for me either way. The reasoning behind his original vote was something I didn't express well but also didn't like. The unvote comes a looooooooong time after Ottox has started to look very town. And it doesn't come with anything else. No desire to seek another target, no nothing after that. Just "Okay, no Ottoxvote."
I saw one response yesterday an thought, that sounds better, butnot good enough yet. So I went to bed, and when I had time today again to write a proper post I unvoted. I saw early this morning that he was in no danger to get lynched, so I wanted to waitunt I could make a proper post

Was at work, wanted to write about thrawn, did not have enough time for more than unvote.

Also I think he is scum because he keeps on dropping useless stuff here and there, comments near the bolded part.

Do you actually think those posts aren't contributions or are you just jumpy because I ragged on something you were posting about? I see you've made a nice spin-doctored and out of context version of my filter. Serious question btw

Texting from mobile cause cable modem is broken.

Yes they are out of context, but they don't improve when read in context. . I quoted them because you said I was posting useless stuff, when you had done exactly that yourself. I just wanted to show that you were contradicting yourself.

But tell me, thrawn, who is a scummy person in this game, and why? Do you already see someone?

Looks like pounding on thrawn to me. Also regarding ottox, you mention him as bluelightz starts pressuring him.
Sleepy as fuck now, so I am off to bed. I would really like you guys to considerate a lynch on phagga, but if you do not like to do it, at least hammer someone, no lynch would be just awful.

night!


Thrawn: wanted to point out that he has been doing the very thing he accused me off. Was a bit weary of him, hence me asking him about his reads, response put me back on null on him for that moment.

Ottox: so what? Noone had voted on him and I brought up a genuine point. Where is the Problem?

I am home in 10 mins, family time, will be online in roughly 2 hours.

Yes they are out of context, but they don't improve when read in context. . I quoted them because you said I was posting useless stuff, when you had done exactly that yourself. I just wanted to show that you were contradicting yourself.

But tell me, thrawn, who is a scummy person in this game, and why? Do you already see someone?

Looks like pounding on thrawn to me. Also regarding ottox, you mention him as bluelightz starts pressuring him.
Sleepy as fuck now, so I am off to bed. I would really like you guys to considerate a lynch on phagga, but if you do not like to do it, at least hammer someone, no lynch would be just awful.

night!

You guys may not like association talk, but I'll note that if thrawn flips scum then Phagga is my #1 read. Sinensis picked up on their banter before, phagga's townread on thrawn with no reasoning felt off to me, and then he drops in with a case once thrawn starts to be a pretty clear favorite (although so did 1/3 of the game). My gut just lumps those two together as scum, although I guess we'll see what thrawn flips.


I really don't see the logic behind all of this. What you are saying is that scum is already so desperate that they are not simply bussing each other, but even calling the deciding vote! And this in a game where it is absolutely unnecessary to do something like this on D1 because of the instant majority?

I'm not saying its impossible, but that would be a really desperate plan and should at least seem unlikely.

Also, I never had a townread on thrawn. I said that I don't think he is scummy. Stop making up facts.

Do you think my points I raise on thrawn are bad? if so, tell me why.

Which seems to be negative (echoing others, not contributing)


I wanted to get a reaction of him. He accused me of not posting something of value, and I saw the contradiction because he had several junk posts as well. I wanted to see how he reacted when I pointed this out to him.

posts "don't improve" --> implying they're bad or scummy? Accusing thrawn of "contradicting himself"


uffa, let's see. Thrawn (correctly) accuses me of taking his posts out of context. What I wanted to point out was, that no matter if I read those quoted posts in context or not, they are bad either way. So that "improvement" was not meant on his general posting behaviour but still on the 4 posts I had pointed out earlier.

And I thought those posts are just bad, which is nothing new at the start of a game. some people use the first hour to troll / make bad posts. The only slightly scummy thing was that he was contradicting himself when he called me out on posts without value when he had himself posts without value. However, I realised that this dialogue would go nowhere (and be of no help) so I asked him for his reads.

@thrawn, the problem with your analysis of a possible connection of sinensis and s&b is that you are making a lot of assumptions. It's not wrong to do that, but it's just quite a stretch because we do not have that much info available yet.

This post doesn't really point towards a scummy OR a town read.

Those posts seem to indicate that you're viewing thrawn in a scummy light, or at the very least that you have no reason to view him in a townie light, since you've been critical of his play.


for me, it did not change his alignment. I had a null read on him.

But then when Bluelightz advocates not lynching thrawn, you state this:

Eh, no? I was talking generally, not about thrawn specifically. I agree that thrawn does not look scummy, i just think the reason you gave is bad.


Why did you not find thrawn scummy? What happened exactly that made you go from thrawn not looking scummy to you basically writing a case on him and threatening a vote?


In short, this post happened.

It was his answer to my question if someone already stood out to him. I liked the thinking process behind it, and this pretty much set him to null for me after what had happened before.

Alright, I've just been able to read the last few pages of the thread and there are several huge walls of text about me. I don't think I'm gogin to be able to respond to them all adequately before I get hammered so I'm just going to give some quick reads for yall to look over after my flip.

So I'm being mislynched which causes me to be suspicious of each of the people who have voted/talked about me. For iamp, his original vote was not based on very much and I have know way of knowing how honestly he felt about that first vote. Otto's vote I am not suspicious of,thinking about it now I think it's likely his vote came as a result of the two of us getting into a heated argument and not really feeling that the other person was listening to the argumentts we presented. Sinensis I am still suspicious of. Overall I've had a scummy read on him for a lot of the game and I don't even think he cared what I was saying in my defense, he was just brushing it aside. for phagga, he has been off my radar for a lot of the game other than our argument early on and his vote seemed to be a little out of the blue and it was at a perfect time for mafia to start putting pressure on their mislynch bandwagon. Also there is bl, who has sorta been defending me all game but not really going into too much detail about what exactly I've posted so I also think you should look at him.

god damnit, give me a good reason not to hammer you! you are here. If you are town, then try to get out of this!

I'm legitimately interested in his read on you.

##Vote: phagga

Thrawn, see above. Why no suspicions on me, when I also wrote a case on you and expressed interest in voting you? Also, give phagga a look over, and try and get some thoughts on him out. I heard he's got 3 votes now and you haven't voted.

The suspense. The intrigue. Who will be lynched!?

who else could I possibly vote for? I mean I could have sat here and hoped that everyone will switch to sinensis but that is not going to happen


Read on in the thread. That question was not about you. If you legitimately want to lynch me, go ahead and vote (well, you did vote already, but you know what I mean). Else there is still the possibility to no-lynch.

regarding the thread, I explained our banter more here:

your argumentation so far has not giving me a reason not to hammer you, so currently I would, yes.

Why does my vote and suspicion on ottoxlol not stand out, but the vote on you does?

The reason I have not hammered you yet is that every piece of information is important for town. You are here, so we can discuss what's going on. No need to prematurely hammer you.

Ok first, your first point against him was that he looks afraid to be lynched. Yes mafia are more afraid of being lynched than town but town still DO NOT want to be lynched. Especially D1 I'd think. So right off the bat it seems like you were making a big deal out of something that could be either town or mafia


I don't share view, specially as there were no votes on Ottoxlol at that point. There was no reason for him to be afraid.
